As we already said, next month we leave to Palau to volunteer as teachers. But as us in the beginning, most of you also do not kow were Palau is. Today we are going to talk a little about this destination.

The island was descovered by Spaniards in 1543. Thru the years went through many nationalities. In 1899 the island was sold to Germany. In 1920 started to be administered by Japan, and then by USA after the second World War. Today is an independent country, by the paluan vote in 1979.

It is a tropical island with 27ºc of average annual temperature and 82% of average humidity. Its landscape is unique in the world. Nowadays many believe that this is the country with the most beautiful and well preserved natural reserve of corals in the world. This is why it’s a great dive site. It is also the only place in the world where it is possible to swim with jellyfish without any danger. In addition, the most part of the island is a tropical rainforest which makes the Palau on land also very beautiful.

Degree in management but a lover of the arts since childhood. I live on the threshold between what is logical and creative. I believe in the God that created everything and that is what gives meaning and purpose to my life. Because of him, I take great pleasure in learning something new, even if it is knitting, writing, painting, cake design, photography, fashion, cooking, crafts, sports... All of this helps me to feel the most blessed person in the world, even not being, and inspires me to create how I am every single day. The infinite is the limit that God imposed in our lives and I want everyone to feel the same way.
